New Delhi: U.S.-based AI data centre operator CoreWeave has signed a $6.3 billion agreement with Nvidia that ensures the chipmaker will purchase any unused cloud capacity from the company until April 2032. The deal, announced on September 15, marks a significant expansion of their earlier partnership from April 2023.
The agreement offers Nvidia long-term access to high-performance computing infrastructure needed for training and deploying large artificial intelligence models. For CoreWeave, the deal provides revenue certainty as it continues to scale its cloud operations in the United States and Europe. The company runs data centres equipped with Nvidia’s GPUs, which remain in high demand across industries developing generative AI and machine learning tools.
By structuring the deal as a purchase guarantee, Nvidia secures priority access to computing power while shielding CoreWeave from risks of excess capacity. Such arrangements highlight the growing interdependence between AI hardware suppliers and specialised cloud providers, particularly as the market for generative AI continues to expand.
The financial markets responded positively to the announcement. CoreWeave’s shares rose 6.9% in early trading on Monday, reflecting investor confidence in the stability and scalability of the long-term agreement. Analysts note that the arrangement underscores Nvidia’s strategy to strengthen its ecosystem beyond chip design by locking in infrastructure partnerships that support end-to-end AI deployment.
As AI workloads intensify, capacity planning has become a central issue for both technology providers and enterprises. The CoreWeave-Nvidia deal illustrates how long-term supply agreements are increasingly shaping the competitive dynamics of the cloud and semiconductor markets.
